I don't really know about vocal fry...it kind of strikes me as one of those things like ending a sentence with a preposition or splitting an infinitive--there's nothing actually wrong with it, as near as I can tell, and it'll only bug you if you notice it. As such, I'm trying very hard not to notice it.

Personally, I'd vote for Japanese, with Italian as a close second (no, it's not a coincidence that those are the only two languages I speak besides English; yes, the fact that I speak other languages is absolutely because I hate English and am running away).
